Home Page  Bird page Sound needed

A sound classification is the indispensable basis of mush biological research. It is a prerequisite for the application of the comparative method. Consistent with Simpson's (1961:7) definition of systematics as "the scientific study of the kinds and diversity of organisms and of any and all relationships among them", the systematist studies all aspects of living organisms. Such studies are often meaningless without a sound classification. 

The Sound Library is a broad research collection of avian communication signals. In practice, the collection comprises collections of bird calls (tapes, records, CD's, CD-ROMs) and behaviour (video, 35 mm slides cine film). The sound collection contains about 25 000 cuts of 2500 species and the slide collection houses more than 6000 slides of 760 species. the fundamental value of the collection is its relevance to taxonomic and systematic research. It is also an animal sounds analysis center and makes use of recent technological advance such as R-DAT, CD-ROM and computerized sound analysis software. This use enhances the service the collection can provide to academic, educational and commercial groups.

Sonograms (= sound spectrograms or audiospectrograms) are frequency (= pitch, Y axis) versus time (X axis) displays of the energy contained in sounds. Amplitude (loudness) variation may be represented by the density ("blackness") of the image.


 Canary output.


In the future the sound lab will not only be limited to bird sounds but will include other living organisms as well.
